Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Polyfest collection comprises video recordings, programmes and shot logs from 1987-2016. Not all years within this period are covered. The bulk of audiovisual material is comprised of raw footage originally made by Television New Zealand. Additional Māori Television footage of the Māori stage, 2016 was obtained from Media Services.

Coverage of the festival has changed and developed over the years, and the nature of the footage reflects this. The Tagata Pasifika footage includes presenter interviews and outtakes, while the videodisc series are compiled by stage. From 2011, TVNZ moved from analogue to digital footage. Key language and terms associated with film production have been retained. For more information about these terms please refer to the glossary.
